PD (2) 1 Rose & Rose’s Dianakeees Inspector Morse. Very immature but still a good outline outline. Good head with neat ears. Good body. Needs grow on and to settle on the move but a great prospect. Distinct shadings. Be interesting to see how he matures. BP 2 Burnett’s Torrikees We Will Rock You. Up to size and very advanced for a puppy. Not the head properties of 1. Good through body. Very sound both ends. Well curled tail.
JD (1) 1 Peck’s Keitakees To Love Somebody At Byquy. Super shape and sound. Colour correctly shaded with black tips on body coat. Black mask. Small high set ears. Not over enamoured with the flapping tent. Another who should come good later.
LD (3,1) 1 Brunt’s Zandvoort Mr Bond. Very sound and good outline. Well set and curled tail. Ears could be smaller. Masculine without being coarse. Clear markings. Moving out soundly when he thought about it. Not the easiest dog to show. RCC. 2 Atkinson’s Vivids Majestic Prince Of Winklestar. Smaller male than 1 but everything in proportion. Lots of virtues but not the soundness of winner. Well made with distinct black body hair.
OD (6) 1 Hickson & Hickson’s Ch Kichigai’s Only The Lonley. Some years since I have judged this chap and he has matured beautifully. Excellent in so many respects. Lovely outline. Very sound with sharp precise pattern of moving. Well coated with good ruff. Good colour and coat texture. Very well presented. Well set on tail. Strong loin and rear action. CC, BOB, Veteran Group 2. 2 Harris’ Ch Kichigai Boy Is Back In Town For Watchkees JW. Slightly bigger all through than winner and definitions in colour not so pronounced. But defined black body hair. Well coated. Tail tends to flag on occasions. Strong bone and good action when settled. 3 Fitches & Fitches NL Ch Samoykees Harbour Lights.

VB (4) Super class of mature ladies all in good coat. 1 McKean’s Ch Kichigai This Girl Is Mine At Yawren. Lovely for size. Excellent profile with clean legs. Profuse coat with correct shadings Well set on tail. Good bone. Moving out very soundly. Quite the show girl. BCC. 2 Divers & Divers & Divers’ Ir Ch Kichigai Rare Edition At Murmansk (Neut). Lots of coat but quality under the fluff. Incredibly well presented. Well boned and very sound. Carrying correct amount of body and muscle. Fabulous for her age and I still consider her a contender. 3 Brunt’s Ch Vanstrand Quantum of Solace.
PGB (3,1) Two different types but both with virtues. 1 Bates’ Allforus Eternal Flame. Lighter shaded. Not in full coat but still presented good profile. Well set on tail. Dense black mask. Good bone. Straight legs. Moved out well. 2 Marfleet’s Blume vom Taubengarten (Imp Deu). Darker shaded and bigger generally Not the profile of winner. Well set on tail. Good head and dark eye.
LB (4,2) 1 Brunt’s Almaznyi Istochnik Vologodskie Kruzheva (Imp Rus). Lovely profile when settled. Short body with level topline and strong coupling. Well set on tail. Beautiful head and ears. RCC. 2 Atkinson’s Winklestar Daphnis. Different style altogether with good body and lots of neck. Well angulated but hocks could be neater. Tail set OK. Moved very soundly.
OB (5,1) Lovely girls in this class. 1 Gregory’s Amikirs Lovealicious JW. Well matured. Well proportioned with short deep body and short strong loin. Very well set on tail. Lovely head and expression. Elbows well fitted. Moving out soundly fore and aft. Happy showgirl. 2 Hickson & Hickson’s Kichigai’s Uptown Girl JW. Lovely coat and markings. Well set on tail. OK front.
